The recent U.S. National Academies report, Assessment of Intraseasonal to Interannual Climate Prediction and Predictability, was unequivocal in recommending the need for development a North American Multimodel Ensemble (NMME) operational predictive capability. Indeed, this effort is required meet specific tailored regional prediction decision support needs large community climate information users. multimodel ensemble approach has proven extremely effective at quantifying uncertainty due...
Real-time model predictions of ENSO conditions during the 2002–11 period are evaluated and compared to skill levels documented in studies 1990s. represented by Niño- 3.4 SST index east-central tropical Pacific. The skills 20 prediction models (12 dynamical, 8 statistical) examined. Results indicate somewhat lower than those found for less advanced 1980s Using hindcasts spanning 1981–2011, this finding is explained relatively greater predictive challenge posed suggests that decadal variations...
Abstract This paper examines the quality of seasonal probabilistic forecasts near-global temperature and precipitation issued by International Research Institute for Climate Society (IRI) from late 1997 through 2008, using mainly a two-tiered multimodel dynamical prediction system. Skill levels, while modest when globally averaged, depend markedly on season location average higher in tropics than extratropics. To first order, seasons regions useful skill correspond to known direct effects as...
Abstract The prediction skill of precipitation at submonthly time scales during the boreal summer season is investigated based on hindcasts from three global ensemble systems (EPSs). results, analyzed for lead times up to 4 weeks, indicate encouraging correlation over some regions, particularly Maritime Continent and equatorial Pacific Atlantic Oceans. all models correspond high first week compared following weeks. ECMWF forecast system tends yield higher than other two systems, in terms...
ACCESS-S2 is a major upgrade to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology’s multi-week seasonal prediction system. It was made operational in October 2021, replacing ACCESS-S1. The focus addition new weakly coupled data assimilation system provide initial conditions for atmosphere, ocean, land and ice fields. model based on UK Met Office GloSea5-GC2 unchanged from ACCESS-S1, aside minor corrections enhancements. performance skill forecasts have been assessed compared There are improvements...
Abstract The performance of the International Research Institute for Climate and Society “ENSO forecast plume” during 2002–11 period is evaluated using deterministic probabilistic verification measures. plume includes multiple model forecasts Niño-3.4 index nine overlapping 3-month periods beginning month following latest observations. Skills decrease with increasing lead time are highest made after northern spring predictability barrier target seasons occurring prior to forthcoming such...
Inspiring the creative potential of overqualified employees can facilitate a mutually beneficial outcome for both company and employees. However, further investigation is required to ascertain how stimulate perceived overqualification carry out deviance. Drawing upon role theory, this study explores impact mechanism on employee deviance, with leadership emergence as mediating variable, examines moderating job autonomy. Adopting two-stage design, 362 valid data samples were collected from...

This paper describes the tropospheric circulation over lower deserts of Arizona, California, and northwestern Mexico using observations from a special rawinsonde network operated during July August as part 1993 Southwest Area Monsoon Project. The show that flow low desert is diffluent, divergent, upslope afternoon confluent, weakly convergent, downslope or slope parallel in early morning hours. diurnal cycle may help to explain observed tendency for summer thunderstorms occur most frequently...
Abstract In C 3 plants, carbon isotope discrimination (Δ) has been proposed as an indirect selection criterion for grain yield. Reported correlations between Δ and yield however, differ highly according to the analyzed organ or tissue, stage of sampling, environment water regime. a first experiment carried out in spring wheat during two consecutive seasons dry conditions northwest Mexico (Ciudad Obregon, Sonora), different treatments were applied, corresponding main regimes available...
Abstract This study examines skill of retrospective forecasts using the ECHAM4.5 atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) forced with predicted sea surface temperatures (SSTs) from methods varying complexity. The SST fields are in three ways: persisted observed anomalies, empirically SSTs, and SSTs a dynamically coupled ocean–atmosphere model. Investigation relative sets focuses on ensemble mean, which constitutes portion response attributable to prescribed boundary conditions. anomaly...
Farmland soil environmental quality is important for farmland management. To precisely classify the grades of soil, additional samples may be required multistage sampling or supplementary investigations. Compared with optimization methods used mapping estimating global means, grade classifications are primarily focused on relationships between values unsampled locations and thresholds that environment grades. Such must use a layout method to distribute units into areas high risk...
Aims Our purpose is to provide a scientific basis for the construction of urban river corridors. We analyzed effects different widths greenbelts on air temperature and humidity. Methods studied eight with along fifth ring in Beijing, China during one year. measured relative humidity near at control location every two hours from 8:00 18:00 seven continuous days each season. Important findings The greenbelt width affected decrease increase spring, summer autumn, effect increased greater width....
The urban eco-environment is greatly affected by the ecosystem and landscape pattern of wetlands nearby.Based on geological information system (GIS), this paper explores landscape, plant distribution animal in a constructed wetland Yellow River Basin through field survey, identifies study area correlation analysis, thoroughly evaluates health based statistical results.The main conclusions are as follows: First, water body has greatest impact integrity wetland, followed woodland.The two...
Abstract The relationship between spatial patterns of rural settlements and environment its dynamics were analyzed in Daxing District, Beijing the recent 20 years using landsat TM images. Results showed that too much land total was used for study area with a rapid growth, it had great potential intensive utilization; rather small, weak aggregation high random expanse distribution; highways, rivers channels important factors affected distribution settlements, while railways expressways...
